whats your uptime?

only 36 here, but that's because i install batches of 20 or 30 apps at a time to test them out (thank you "top app" threads!), then remove most of them as i find them useless, ugly, etc. as a windows guy i'm just used to rebooting after stuff like that. probably unnecessary.

i also installed startup auditor and wanted to test that a few times recently.

all reboots were for my own piece of mind, however. no problems so far.

i'm going to try to go all of next week now that i'm *almost* done playing with my new toy.

I restart every time the sub menu slide animation gets choppy, thats a sign my phone is lagging even if there aren't any apps running. I find it weird how after long periods of use I can have 9mb free + xxx with only 2 services running. Something isn't clearing memory and it seems to effect performance not just on visual effects but on app performance in general. Anyone else?

Mine seems to need a reboot every few days. It just dies and cannot be turned on again without pulling the battery. I've gotten into the habit of checking on it every so often to make sure it's on . . . :rolleyes:


sounds like you have something buggy installed or something isn't right with your phone.

good luck finding it. Hopefully it's something simple.

Powering off will reset the uptime.

Also, before someone else jumps in on this - there has been a lot of flack about how LiON batteries don't have memory problems and conditioning is not needed - but my own experience in the first days I had the phone seem to indicate otherwise, although I cannot say scientifically that it made a difference to do what you did - I just did, and it worked on giving me better battery times. But that could also be due to the fact that I did not let it charge overnight the day it arrived, as I was too busy playing with it :p

In general, any powering off of the device (perhaps excluding application / setting related reboots) will reset the uptime.

31+ here right now....
